I'm constantly expecting them to win and yet they continue to lose and slip lower and lower.

I have no problem with Howe using him the way he has. He's an option that provides unique ability and impact. I wouldn't consider what we saw of ASM under Bruce as being part of his current reckoning. Whilst we've definitely seen inconsistency from him under Howe we've also seen a willingness to adapt his game and contribute more. He's never going to be dependable in his all-round game but with the amount of substitutes and bench players you can carry we'd be silly to get rid of him IMO.

Their books are going to make for some very interesting reading. They don't need accountants, they need fiction writers.

Playing out the suspension he should have received a few weeks back in good faith on the pitch.

Necessary for our progression. Plus if there's a cup final to lose it's that one. Financially speaking it made next to no difference that we lost.

His movement and confidence on the ball have been impressive.

His consistency may be similar but he has changed a lot as a player under Howe. With Bruce he was allowed to do what he wanted and the ball was consistently funneled to him hoping for some magic with no expectations on his outside attack. Under Howe he knows he has to fit in the team, which means contributing defensively and passing. He could have easily had a couple more assists in this and the pass that was converted by Willock you could have previously seen him somehow instead trying to score himself.

If this studio team mention Casemiro again, I'm turning it off and going to bed (nearly 4AM here). One player doesn't overturn such a dominant game. Three second later, goodnight all.

Yep, love that we're rattling cages all over.

Can we see his 'shot on target' where he has a brain fart and passes it straight to Pope?

Such a Craig way to pop back up Well done 👍

It's also clear that the reason we have the lowest amount of time with the ball active on the pitch is nothing to do with time wasting and everything to do with the tempo we play at, it forces corners and free-kicks which take time. When we don't have the ball we still maintain that high tempo and put pressure on the opposition at every chance which leads to more balls into touch.

Ahh yes, we've dominated all game, leap frogged them in the table and all the commentary want to do is talk about Manure.

Look at Howe calmly celebrating. Horse gnashers or lego hair would be fist pumping, flapping arms around running up the sideline. Love this club. ❤️

These red shirted losers won't soon forget this.

Willock and Isak having a good old laugh on the bench. ❤️

Rashford

🤣

Fuck yes, so deserved. Great for Wilson to get on the sheet. We should be five or six up by I don't care.

If you look up cathword in the dictionary surely there's a picture of Martinez.

Wannabe winger playing in defense hoping not to have to do any defending.

Fuck, thought that deflection was going in.

Even if it's not (it is) it's still a foul given he just kicked our player?

Schär kicked in the head by Bruno Fernandes, who was nowhere near the ball... hmm anyone suggest what that should be?

Willock's legs gone. Get him off.
